Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
Steam or boil the vegetables until they’re soft.
If using raw shrimp or fish, cook them lightly to eliminate any potential pathogens.
Step 2: Blend the Mixture
Combine the cooked fish, shrimp, or worms with the vegetables in a blender.
Add optional ingredients like spirulina powder, garlic, or fish oil. Blend until the mixture is smooth.
Step 3: Add Gelatin
Prepare gelatin according to the package instructions. Slowly incorporate the blended mixture into the gelatin, stirring to combine.
Step 4: Set the Mixture
Pour the mixture into ice cube trays or spread it onto a flat dish lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate until it sets.
Step 5: Cut and Store
Once set, cut the mixture into small, fish-sized portions. Store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to two months.
